Panel 1 Alister from a rooftop looks towards the church on the hill. Darkness consumes the sky but there is a small light piercing the sky above the church. Behind Alister sits his hovercycle. His sword is in its sheath on his back.

ALISTER I can’t believe it’s been 10 years since all this began, and I still try to do good, but all I want to do is rest. Rest it seems to be all I think of when I should be thinking of this city; think of my city. I’m the one, the person that was chosen. I was the one born to this family. I must keep my head up high when it seems this war will never end. I know, however, that it will end. I don’t know how I don’t know when, but what I do know is that it will end when you are ready. This building so many times I stood right here this spot, and gazed out into the city, to hear the cries of the people below. Oh God God these dark skies I’m sick of them. I want to see the sun again. I want to see more than the sliver of light that you shine on the church. Oh, that church that changed my life. God why did you put it on that hill? Did you have people build it so that you didn’t have to move the hill? Like the Bible said that you can move mountains. Why am I still doing this? Why am I again alone I thought you would never leave or forsake me?

Page 2 Page 2: 2975A.D. Alister flashes back to when he finds out about his parents and sisters death.

Panel 1 Taking up the top 3rd of the page: You see a church on the front of it, it says “Harvest Church;” behind the church in the distance you see the church on the hill.

ALISTER I remember how I spiraled out of control at least my life did. Okay, I did too. It was at the church my family had gone to for years. I had gone when I was young, but when I became a teenager they let me decide what I wanted to do. So I stopped going.

Panel 2 Taking up the middle of the page: Inside the church, people standing, some with their hands up in the air, as they are singing.

ALISTER I thought it was strange to see people raise their hands and jump up and down praising a being that one couldn’t see.

Panel 3 Taking up the bottom 3rd of the page: Inside the church, people sitting as the preacher is standing at his pulpit preaching.

ALISTER As I recall the last service, for what I was told later. Was talking about…

PASTOR Today we are going to talk about the love of God, and his forgiveness.

Panel 1 People are leaving the church but a few are still standing around talking. The pastor comes up to a couple and their daughter.

PASTOR Where’s your son Alister.

MOTHER He didn’t want to come; he says there is no God.

PASTOR Oh, he is in the stage of his life like others have been. The stage that things that we can’t see must be none existent or not real.

Panel 2 Taking most of the page the church explodes.

Panel 3 Alister stands at the funeral, a tear rolling down his cheek.

ALISTER I can still remember what I thought at the funeral.

ALISTER (thinking) Mom gave me a choice to go with them, but I didn’t. Because I didn’t, I mean I don’t believe in God. This would have never happened if there was a God.

ALISTER (CON’T) Oh my thoughts went crazy that day, but that was the day my path would split and I would go down the road that had no path. I was making my own way. Or this is what I thought.

Panel 1 Alister hears screams. Alister shakes his head as if he was trying to wake himself up from sleeping (dreaming).

ALISTER What in the hell…

Panel 2 He jumps on his hovercycle.

ALISTER That was a tortuous scream.

Panel 3 Panel 3: He goes down the road, Screams erupt again, he travels to where the screams have come from.

ALISTER Who ever this person is they sound like hell has come to take there soul.

ALISTER (CON’T) This of course is all to common today, but there still was something in the scream.

Panel 4 Panel 4: He sees that there is a girl running as fast as she can.

Panel 5 Panel 5: Behind her is a man chasing her. Alister with his spiritual sight can see that the man is possessed by a demon. (Need to somehow show that he is a man and that he has maybe a silhouette of a demon.

MAN Come here limitless bitch.

WOMAN Aaaaahh!!!

Page 5 Page 5

Panel 1 Panel 1: Alister up close.

ALISTER (says to himself) This is sure getting old. These demons will never learn.

Panel 2 Panel 2: Alister drives ahead of the girl and man and stops his hovercycle in front of the girl.

ALISTER (saying to himself) I can’t let this girl be captured, I just can’t.

DEMON I’m taking this girl and I’m going to sacrifice her and let my father have her soul.

ALISTER There is only one Father.

DEMON Ha I’m not talking about him I’m talking about my father Satan.

Panel 6 Panel 6: The demon jumps out the window.

Panel 7 Panel 7: Alister looks out the window and sees nothing.

ALISTER I…I didn’t, I couldn’t save her.

Page 24 Page 24

Panel 1 Panel 1: Alister puts his sword back in his sheath and starts to walk down the stairs.

ALISTER Why? Why?

Panel 2 Panel 2: As Alister walks out of the building.

ALISTER What is wrong with me? Why, couldn’t I save that girl?”

Panel 3 Panel 3: Alister arrives back at his hovercycle.

ALISTER God what’s going on? I have never not defeated a fow with this sword. What in the world is going on?

Panel 4 Panel 4: Alister flies off.

ALISTER I never seen a demon rip off human flesh like it was cloths. And then I wasn’t able to save not only a soul but the girl. The girl looked so, I don’t know what’s wrong with me. AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!

Panel 5 Panel 5: Alister sees the church on the hill the light that pireced through the darkness seemed to be getting smaller.

The writer of these words did not originally want to put words to paper, but to draw the glorious things he saw. However, he could not draw from images in his mind. He could only draw those things he saw that had been drawn by others. He then almost died one day and that urge to draw became the urge to write. Again, however, the fuel was not always there, and before he knew it it was his senior year of high school, and he was tasked to write a 50page novella for a final project. This became the fuel and started his path of being a full-time writer. He may have struggled and may have made no difference in the world of man nor money in his hand, but he still moves forward. He currently is writing a comic book that has an artist who draws the things that are envisioned. Life could be better, but it could be always worse. So he keeps his head low to write but high to live life. This is the story of this man, to know more, read the words he has put into the world of the web.
